NOE HP 311-247-FN RG4

Hi all, I'm hoping to see an inventory run of this bullet. If it is one you all are interested in also, here is the link to post to on the noe site. I believe we would also get a group buy price if enough sign up :)

Re: What type of the powder by the pound is best?

Just to add, there is a link above to the hi-tek section. hi-tek is not the same as powder coating. I've used both and they each have their advantages. I find myself powdercoating much more than I do hi-tek.

If you go onto cast boolits, look for a gentleman called smoke4320. He sells a very good powder for a low cost. His sale post also lists which colors are best for dry tumbling.

Re: gas port leak

Thanks guys. I'll try out the old block with that permatex you mentioned. Rebel, you are right, the pic really was bad.

Re: gas port leak

Thank you Dellet, I was stuck on those powders for a long time, lgs did not have any other good powders for the blackout. Then on the way home from the range I stopped in to browse and saw Accurate 1680 on the shelf. :mrgreen: One of my buds actually asked me if I just had a 'powder-gasm'. Well I no...

Re: gas port leak

Port size is not the problem. Load data, and buffer weight would be very helpful before going to far down the gas leak rabbit hole. Here is the load data I shared yesterday. http://www.300blktalk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=141&t=81580&start=10#p946889 2.9 ounce buffer I'll go out on a limb a...
